Whilst watching Newsround, they were commenting that some games were actually good for you as they build up how you think strategically and are almost as good as chess. But why did they have to show a guy playing a Megadrive? The clip didnt even look old... Strange. Perhaps they dont want to be seen promoting one console more than another, but thats what the guy on BBC's gamestation does. It is PS2 this PS2 that. Bloody fanboy...

The other day i persuaded one of my mates to buy a cube, he was gonna get a PS2, and didnt consider the cube. I told him about some of the games and he was impressed, especially with AC..

Yeh, thats true. A mate of mine has a PS2 and for the first time last Friday he played Super Mario Sunshine and was blown away. He is now getting a cube as well. The trouble is there is a whole generation out there who dont even know that anything other than the bloody playstation exists!!
